All this is just about what we would expect to have been going on behind the scenes if this incident. I think the story though is that the original piece was if anything too soft. The allusion to Pretty Woman is entirel accurate, but does not clearly enough make the point that Zas is not so much making cuts to save the company by making it profitable, but a premeditated strategy to obscenely increase his own personal wealth. That is the Ricard Gere character, but I don’t think most readers would have fully gotten the point.
